In our continuous voyage of recording lowrider and classic car profiles, we've collected an inspiring photo stock of rare antique cars belonging to Old Memories L.A. and El Paso, Texas chapters. 

 

Los Angeles, California and El Paso, Texas have long been a major lowrider & vintage car focal point. Both cities, as well as dozens of others around the United States are home of Old Memories Car Club, one of the worlds most infamous bomb clubs.

 

Old Memories, an exclusively vintage bomb club was established in South Los Angeles in 1978 by Eddie Soler and Tony Lopez. The clubs founding fathers were perfectionists who enforced excellence and consistency on every one of it's vintage rides.

 

The Old Memories bomb collection numbers in the thousands, with active club chapters out-fitted in cities across America and even Japan. This fine car club is known for organizing numerous unconditional charity events for every desperately needed cause imaginable.

 

We dedicate this page to Mr. Manny "Zoot Suiter" Alcaraz of South Los Angeles and the good people of Old Memories Car Club. May Old Memories Car Club continue down its path of vintage brilliancy.
